Congrats @BellaTheCow! Though, I'm not sure what I can do for you as a reward...
Anyway, here's the tale of your chosen path!
As you cautiously step forward, the fog swirls around you, whispering secrets of the past. Shadows dance at the edges of your vision, but they don't attack—they seem to be guiding you. The further you walk, the more the mist thins, revealing a hidden archway carved with glowing runes. As you step through, the fog lifts completely, and you find yourself back with your team, safe and sound. It seems the spirits of the mist were testing your resolve, and you have passed.
And sorry to say this @raspberry590, but that was the incorrect path! Possibly the worst choice, tbh
With every step down the rocky trail, the air grows colder, heavier. The bioluminescent glow of the fungi provides little comfort as you descend deeper into the canyon. Then, the ground trembles. The black river below surges unnaturally, and from the depths, something massive stirs. A gaping maw rises from the darkness, rows of jagged teeth reflecting the dim light. You turn to flee, but the path behind you has vanished into the abyss. There is no going back.
And I know no one selected number two, but might as well close this round off with the little blurb I wrote, yeah?
You tread carefully through the crumbling city, eyes darting between the hollow buildings. At first, all is still, but then you hear it—the low, guttural growl of something ancient and hungry. The shadows around you begin to shift, coalescing into towering figures with gleaming eyes. You try to run, but the ground gives way beneath your feet, sending you tumbling into the depths of the ruined world. Your team is lost to you now, unless they come searching… but will they make it in time?
